sounds like your up for a rebuild... but it could be buggered as a result of a bad carb tune..

As Sean is saying ... It's really important to ensure that a carbs float level is set right otherwise excessive fuel can wash oil off the bore ... which in turn can wear things out really quickly ... Riding with the choke on all the time can have the same effect ...

If your oil smells heavily of fuel then that's a good indicator of badly worn or poorly sealing rings caused by running the engine too rich for an extended period ...
